Kelowna Updates from KELOWNA!!

As we get closer to April 17th, here are a few pertinent reminders, as well as our warm-up schedule and current (although still changing!!) draw for the evening.

1) If all of your school's music is on one CD, please ensure that the tracks are labelled to match the draw order sent out today (i.e. Jr. Quad - Fleetwood 1).
2) Refund deadline for entries is April 1st. Please advise us of any changes before this date if you wish to receive a refund.
3) Remember that our gymnasium is smaller than most and our maximum capacity means that tickets will likely NOT be available at the door. The deadline for presale tickets has passed but if you have any additional ticket requests, please let us know ASAP and we will do our best to accommodate. It is always a scramble to try and find extra tickets for parents who come in from out of town and we don't want to have anyone disappointed.
4) As we did in 2008, we will be running a two-panel judging system except for our Senior Hip Hop category. This means that our schedule will alternate between Jr. and Sr. entries in order to keep the evening moving as quickly as possible. As we get closer to the competition date, we will be sending out a complete order of events but for planning purposes, expect that we will follow the general outline sent out today, alternating between Sr. and Jr.
5) We wil not be selling DVDs but each school will get a complimentary DVD sent to them when they are ready.
6) Competition t-shirts are $17 and sweatpants are $30. Presale orders will not be taken, but limited stock will be available the day of the competition.

Let me know if you foresee any problems or changes before the competition,

• You may choose to use your time however you like whether that be to block without music or run all your pieces once through with music. Note: Please hand in your music to the technicians once you have checked in and been escorted to the gym.
• When your time is up you must immediately exit the stage for the next school.
• There is ample space around the school to go and review dances, warm-up, or discuss anything as a team once your designated time is over.
• Your school’s check-in time is 15 minutes prior to your warm-up time. Please ask your bus drivers to drop you off at the front of the school as the rear doors will be locked. This is also where you will find the registration station and can pick up your coaches packages.
